Activate Bluetooth in Windows

When Bluetooth hardware is installed on a

Ranger, it must be enabled before it can be
used.
1. Exit Survey Pro if it is running to return to

the Windows operating system.

2. From Windows, tap

> Settings >

Connections

> Bluetooth > Mode and check

the Turn on Bluetooth checkbox. (It is not

necessary to check the Make this device
discoverable…

checkbox unless you want

other devices to be able to detect your

Ranger for non-data collecting functions.)

Discover and Bond with New Bluetooth
Devices

Before you can use any Bluetooth peripheral with Survey Pro for the

first time, the device must be discovered, and typically a process

called bonding must be performed.

1. Exit Survey Pro if it is running to return to the Windows

operating system.

2. Power on your peripheral hardware and be sure Bluetooth is

activated and discoverable on that device. Also be sure you have

the Bluetooth passkey available if applicable.
